Data Centre Connectivity

Effective and efficient IT infrastructures providing adequate capacity for critical business data are key requirements of enterprises today. It is a must to prevent network downtime and data disaster scenarios, and ensure swift recovery of all critical data (disaster recovery). Mission-critical applications call for a hot standby facility (business continuity). A reliable, scalable and high-performance technology is essential for the connection of distributed data centres.

Fields of Application

• Business Continuity (BC)
  • Open systems server cluster (x86 systems)
  • Mainframe clustering in IBM Geographically Dispersed Parallel Sysplex (GDPS®) environments
• Disaster Recovery (DR)
  • Synchronous and asynchronous replication
• Tape backup
• Distributed file systems
